Thats One Historic Auction at DCHA Aug 16

DELHI — Mark your calendars for Saturday afternoon August 16th. To help support the care of the Delaware County Historical Association’s collections, we are partnering with Matt Marchese, owner of “This and That” antique store in Delhi, who is kindly hosting a benefit auction. Bid live on local historic items with Dave Rama as volunteer auctioneer. “This and That” is located at 110 Main St, Delhi.

Lunch will be available beginning at 11am catered by Chef Will from 80 Main Restaurant in Delhi.

Of course, we are not auctioning off any of our historic items in museum collections. What will be offered are numerous select objects closely connected to Delaware County’s history that have been specifically donated for this effort. Donated items going under the hammer include a variety of baskets, milk churns, small furniture pieces, tools, historic maps, lamps, table settings, historic books, a Lionel Limited edition train set (still in original box), artworks, and more.

All proceeds from sales will benefit DCHA’s museum collections. "Old Stuff is the Best Stuff!"

There’s More!

Additionally, 10 select items from our museum’s collections will be on display for a special “Adopt an Object” fundraiser. The winners of this part of the event will go home with a one-of-a-kind framed professional along with a brief history of the object they have “adopted.”
